Ringrose set to miss November Tests with hamstring issue
Ireland rugby player Garry Ringrose is expected to miss the upcoming Nations Championship due to a hamstring injury. The squad faces further uncertainty with other player injuries and a disciplinary hearing for Tadhg Furlong.
Why it matters
The loss of key players impacts Ireland's competitive standing in international rugby tournaments.
Ireland look set to be without centre Garry Ringrose for their Nations Championship campaign next month due to a hamstring injury.
The 31-year-old missed Leinster's 24-18 win against Munster last Saturday after picking up the issue in training.
Ireland's squad gathered in Dublin yesterday, with the first of four games for Andy Farrell's side taking place against Argentina on Friday, 6 November.
The IRFU says Ringrose is "unlikely" to be involved in the games against Argentina, Fiji and South Africa at Aviva Stadium, while they will also face one other team at Twickenham on Saturday, 28 November.
